This patch adds clang-tidy and the clang static-analyzer as make
targets. The goal of this patch is to make static analysis tools
usable and extendable by any developer or researcher who is familiar
with basic c++.

The current static analysis tools require intimate knowledge of the internal
workings of the static analysis.  Clang-tidy and the clang static analyzers
expose an easy to use api and allow users unfamiliar with clang to
write new checks with relative ease.

===Clang-tidy===

Clang-tidy is an easily extendable 'linter' that runs on the AST.
Clang-tidy checks are easy to write and understand. A check consists of
two parts, a matcher and a checker. The matcher is created using a
domain specific language that acts on the AST
(https://clang.llvm.org/docs/LibASTMatchersReference.html).  When AST
nodes are found by the matcher a callback is made to the checker. The
checker can then execute additional checks and issue warnings.

Here is an example clang-tidy check to report functions that have calls
to local_irq_disable without calls to local_irq_enable and vice-versa.
Functions flagged with __attribute((annotation("ignore_irq_balancing")))
are ignored for analysis. (https://reviews.llvm.org/D65828)

===Clang static analyzer===

The clang static analyzer is a more powerful static analysis tool that
uses symbolic execution to find bugs. Currently there is a check that
looks for potential security bugs from invalid uses of kmalloc and
kfree. There are several more general purpose checks that are useful for
the kernel.

The clang static analyzer is well documented and designed to be
extensible.
(https://clang-analyzer.llvm.org/checker_dev_manual.html)
(https://github.com/haoNoQ/clang-analyzer-guide/releases/download/v0.1/clang-analyzer-guide-v0.1.pdf)

The main draw of the clang tools is how accessible they are. The clang
documentation is very nice and these tools are built specifically to be
easily extendable by any developer. They provide an accessible method of
bug-finding and research to people who are not overly familiar with the
kernel codebase.

+ Tom for the rename.

I think we should add scripts/clang-tools/ to MAINTAINERS under
CLANG/LLVM SUPPORT:
```

that way we get cc'ed properly on proposed changes (should folks use

I don't know if the kernel has a preferred style for Python, but I
think it would be good to be consistent in the use of single vs double
quotes for strings.  My preference is for double quotes, but I don't
know enough about the various PEPs for style or if the kernel has a
preferred style for these.

+ Bill who knows a bit about Python style.

Is this canonical Python?  Maybe wrap these functions into methods of
an object you construct, that way you can assign these as instance
variables against `self`, rather than using global variables.

When you have a fair amount of duplication between two branches of an
if/else (for instance, same method invocation and number of
parameters, just slight differences in parameter values), consider if
you can use a ternary to simplify or make the code more concise. That
would also help avoid initializing `p` to `None`:

checks = "-checks=-*,linuxkernel-*" if analysis_type == "clang-tidy"
else "-checks=-*,clang-analyzer-*"
p = subprocess.run(["clang-tidy", "-p", os.getcwd(), checks,
    stdout=subprocess.PIPE, stderr=subprocess.PIPE]

then maybe do some validation of the analysis_type when validating
command line arguments earlier.

> +  lock.acquire()

> +  os.write(2, p.stderr)

Please use sys.stdout and sys.stderr rather than magic constants for
their file descriptors.

Isn't there a way to make command line arguments required with
Argparse? In that case, would you still need the conditional?

Please use a space to separate parameters in a parameter list.

So rather than call a function named main, you could simply construct
an object, then call a method on it or have the constructor simply
kick off the analysis (essentially a mix of `main` and `init`).

I did this to allow shared locks between processes, see

Argparse should already handle validation of the analysis type.

Ah, ok, I see the problem.  In that case, I'm less worried about this.
`global` just sets off red flags unless there is a very good reason to
use it.

Is it worthwhile to NOT run `-*` passes and only run
`clang-analyzer-*`? Otherwise `make clang-analyzer` and `make
clang-tidy` contain a ton of duplicate info.

Cool, I still think the ternary can simplify a v3.

Also, I'm not a fan of how clang-tidy writes the errors to stdout.

$ make LLVM=1 -j71 defconfig clang-tidy 2> log.txt
write part of the log, and spews to stdout.  Do you think it would
make sense to redirect stdout from clang-tidy to stderr for this
script?

$ grep error: log.txt | sort -u
$ grep clang-analyzer log.txt | sort -u
Checking some of the clang-tidy warnings, some seem harmless.
linux-next/net/core/devlink.c:9527:6: error: redefinition of
'devlink_compat_running_version' [clang-diagnostic-error]
looks legit, though not terribly important to fix ASAP.  So that's cool.
The clang-analyzer report is a little beefier, once the traces start
getting long they become fairly hard to follow. Is it possible to dump
the html report of these? I guess the issue with that is that we
wouldn't be able to join them in the python script.

$ grep clang-analyzer log.txt | sort -u | cut -d '[' -f 2 | sort -u

interesting. I like how clang-analyzer warns about bcmp and yet llvm
will generate calls to bcmp...
